Maintaining GPA After being Admitted

<p>What GPA should you maintain so that you're not rescinded?</p>

<p>I read on most UC pages that you have to maintain a 3.2 OVERALL GPA.</p>

<p>Does that mean even if you get, let's say, under a 3.0 one quarter, that you wouldn't be in danger of being rescinded since your OVERALL GPA is high enough to take the hit and still be higher than the required 3.2?</p>

<p>Or is their a quarter GPA minimum as well?</p>

<p>Depends if it’s UCLA or Berkeley you’re talking about. I think they want a 3.0 or higher GPA for the last quarter/semester. Just the specific semester.</p>

<p>Who’s getting into a UC with a gpa in the sub 3.0 category?</p>

<p>Usually I think, as long as it not stated to you specifically to be different, it’s no D’s or F’s ad you’re good.</p>

<p>Berkeley (possibly just CoE?) will specifically want a 3.0+ for every quarter/semester (not overall) after you’re admitted, that includes winter, spring, and summer sessions.</p>

<p>I think the others I got into (UCI, UCSD, UCSC) just wanted no failing grades and at least a 3.0 overall.</p>

<p>So, depends on the school. You should probably keep your grades up either way.</p>

<p>For Davis it’s actually at least 2.8 [Undergraduate</a> Admissions: FAQ by Topic](<a href=“Undergraduate Admissions”>Undergraduate Admissions) , although I doubt they’d actually admit you with a 2.8 (if you fell from like 3.8 to 2.8 after getting in though, that’s a different story). It’s just an overall GPA and not failing any classes, because you’re in by that time anyways.</p>

<p>At UC’s, all the ‘+’ and ‘-’ in your grades count! Back when I was in CC, an ‘A-’ was same as an ‘A’ and ‘A+’. A 2.8 GPA is a B-, usually it would be a 3.0 at my CC. It depends on the school and etc.</p>
